Title: search function.
Post by: Het Bosje on December 22, 2010, 04:54:54 AM
I've converted one of my forums from 1.1.12 to 2.0 RC4.
And now the search function gives a blank output.
Is there a trick to reindex the search tables?

Also none, indicating an error in SMF.
Logged in to the database and inspected the 'search' tables contents.
log_search_messages empty
log_search_results  empty
log_search_subjects 50 records
log_search_topics empty
in version 1.1.1x there was a admin task to recreate a new search index, if I remember correctly.
That would become handy now I think.

That isn't the server error log - ask your host about it, since it's not in an DB table.

If you want to rebuild the search index - not that it would solve this problem, since an empty search index won't cause a white screen error - you can do so from Admin > Forum > Search.

So, list of mods installed?

I'm aware of that...........the reference to the databasetables where merely to illustrate that there is nothing found.
I have access to the server, its a machine here in the datacenter of my employer.
And the httpd error_log isn't reporting anything.
No additional mods installed.

After 2 days of inspecting the sources and database content, I'm ready for a mental hospital.
I can't find anything that points to the problem!
Hoped somebody has a clue or a ponter, but unfortunately nobody seems to heva the same.
